Olympus WS-700M digital voice recorder reviews from buyer :-

“A great little recorder! I had the earlier model of this until it was lost – I guess the downside is that they are small, fit in pockets, and can slip away – and always appreciated the quality of the recording and the USB-stick like convenience. I am even more satisfied with the new model which has a rechargeable battery and continues to plug directly into the computer just like a USB stick. This kind is so easy and basically foolproof.”

“This digital recorder is great, the recording quality is outstanding and it is very easy to download recordings to a computer thru the built in USB conection. The recorder is very light compared to outhers ive used, which makes it nice when you have to carry it in your pocket. I use the recorder for work and use it for interviewing people and recording telephone conversation. The only shortfall is the speaker volume may not be loud enough for some people, the recorders not ment for casual listening of music. In a work environment like in the office its volume is fine.”

“I really like this little recorder. I use it primarily for choir rehearsals and to practice music. Some notes on other reviewers comments. Out of the box it does only last 10 minutes but the rechargeable battery does not come charged and needs 3 hours in the USB. This would be a good time to read the PDF which is on the recorder. 92 pages and easy to read. There are some awkward language phrases, but it is entirely understandable and written by an intelligent person. The menus are easy to navigate. It has many options for microphone sensitivity and recording format. The WMA which is the default is very clear. I used the PMC for the choir rehearsal and was very pleased. Some reviewers note a scratchy sound which is the microphone picking up contact noise from your hand or clothing. Mic sensitivity and low cut filters can probably help but I plugged in an inexpensive tie clip microphone and the problem went away completely.

That external microphone was mono which was easily solved with a mono to stereo plug so both channels are playing the same signal. I found the external microphone to not be as loud as the built in ones where you can set sensitivity. I use the recorder exclusively with earbuds and sound is very adequate. It also gives nice sound plugged into a home stereo or car radio. Sound quality is excellent overall. Since it is so small, I attached a flash memory stick neck lanyard and it dangles from my neck so I have access to functions while I record. The pause feature is very nice (hit the record button again and it pauses). It is not an obvious feature unless you read the documentation. I downloaded an album from Windows media Player very easily and sound quality is excellent. Overall I have no complaints.”
